Ah, c'mon...the best Prince "knock-off" will ALWAYS be Ready For The World's "Oh Sheila." There are still people who think Prince did that song about Sheila E! | |

I gotta second that. It was the first thing that popped into my head when I read the topic. The Last Otan Track: www.funkmusician.com/what.mp3 | |

Don't know the name of the band, but
MJ was a brilliant singer/dancer...best of all time, however, that's all he was. Let's not compare him to Prince, best musician of all time, but rather, compare him to someone like Sammy Davis Jr (who I don't hear anyone calling a musical genius). | |

I would say Fortunate or Untitled by D'Angelo. There is a new song on Usher's Confessions album that comes in my top 3 Prince knockoffs EVER. He tries 2 sound like P, and even the groove is very "The Beautiful Ones"-ish. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-
U 'gon make me shake my doo loose! | |

HUH? I wouldn't consider that 2 b a Prince KNOCK OFF. None of Face's work that I have seen is Prince-esque. Face is more Luther Vandross meets Aaron Neville. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

Stevie Salas has two tracks on his new disc, "The Soulblasters Of The Universe" that ooze Prince & The NPG. They are "Static" & "Soul Ecstacy". Go to http://www.steviesalas.com to listen to samples. One of teh funkiest rock records of the year, hands down "Radio Boy Said It Wasn't Rock / Another Said It Wasn't Urban Pop / Man This Bullshit Here Has Got To Stop / I'm Just Trying To Make Some Music" - Stevie Salas, Tell Your Story Walkin' (1995) | |

has anyone ever heard R U Horny? Great rip-off...it's got me movin' right now! 
Also, Giorgio's SexAppeal is a great rip-off. the artist is called Seamore Funk and supposedly he has an album out called "Mr. Feelgood" | |
